    Take note of his choice of words.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but he didn’t use the word “lockdown” in his entire speech.

    He used “safe-distancing”, not social or physical distancing.

    He inspires.

    A leader is a dealer of hope.

    not only does Singapore have competent gov't

    they have educated population that understands what the gov't is trying to do

    so they cooperate

    problema sa pinas dami mangmang

    ordinary pinoys don't understand what "flatten the curve" is

    And when the Singapore PM says 4pm start of speech, it really starts at 4PM. Very professional. Unlike --

    Yes, sir, because of their complacency and incompetence, we pay the price. It did not have to be this way.

    May pumunta taga DSWD dito sa village namin with the guide of HOA officers.

    Naghanap ID and kinuha cp number #, in 2-3 days daw pwede na makuha 5k-8k sa palawan express. Wala kami sa super mamahaling subdivision pero lahat ng nakatira dito may kaya naman kahit papaano at may mga sasakyan.

    Not sure how legit is this pero I thought sa mahihirap lang ito and sa mga nawalan ng trabaho?

    Well, it's obvious our Beloved President is not much of a leader -- more of a "manager", and a very poor manager at that.

    Not really unexpected that these wet markets will have people who are virus positive -- but still alarming considering they are an essential business.

    BTW, if there's a positive case in Arranque market now, why are they gonna disinfect on April 6 -- which is still a few days away? Shouldn't disinfecting be done immediately? Or are they waiting for a disinfecting team and that team cannot schedule them immediately?

    You sound very professional and competent also.

    I hope you will succeed in your endeavor.

    And you will become the president of the republic.

    I think you all have the answers to our country’s woes.

    I have no such ambitions, sir. Did not even want to be class president in school. Merely a humble citizen of the republic doing his duty to keep our government officials from straying too much out of their sworn duty to serve and into the abyss of corruption and evil. We all do our small part.

    Way to go Taiwan --


    "On the heels of an estimated $35 billion stimulus package intended to bolster the island nation's economy, Taiwan pledges to donate masks and medical supplies to the rest of the world as part of its global "Taiwan can help" campaign.

    "We want everyone to not only see that ‘Taiwan can help,’ but that ‘Taiwan is helping,’" Tsai said at a press conference Wednesday morning.

    Despite being one of the countries expected to be hardest hit by COVID-19, Taiwan as of Wednesday had a total of only 329 cases and five deaths."

    You are very eloquent.

    You can do so much for the country.

    Rather than bask in the relative anonymity here and criticize, why not go out and serve?

    Volunteer in the front line.

    Make a difference.

    This may sound banal, but action speaks louder than words.

    That was what Benjamin Netanyahu did for his country.

    Back to thread topic:

    Ambassador Antonio Lagdameo reported that there are 10 Filipinos in the UK and 7 in Ireland that are confirmed positive.

    WHO has no more credibility -- WHO is China's puppet.


    "The deputy prime minister of Japan slammed the World Health Organization, saying it should be called the China Health Organization amid speculation the communist government played down the number of people infected by the coronavirus.


    Japanese deputy prime minister says WHO should be renamed China Health Organization

    Thanks but no thanks, sir. Rule number 1 -- "Don't believe your own PR", has served me well time and time again.

    "Serving" comes in many forms these days, and I contribute what little I can to the community I live in to combat this plague -- be it in donations or service -- I'm content with that.

    meron din pumunta sa amin at nagbigay ng sulat from our barangay. pinasa ko na lang sa yaya ng mom ko. dunno kung mabibigyan siya kasi e-evaluate pa naman nila kung deserving daw ang mga magiging applicants. in house naman si manang kaya wala naman siya problema pero siyempre may mga anak at apo siya sa kanila so tulong na din sa kanya.

    Target numbers... but highly unlikely since we barely test a thousand possible cases a day.

    This is how fast the number of positive patients in COVID-19 in the Philippines.

    March 8: 10
    March 9: 20
    March 10: 33
    March 11: 49
    March 12: 52
    March 13: 68
    March 14: 111
    March 15: 140
    March 17: 187
    March 18: 202
    March 19: 217
    March 20: 230
    March 21: 307
    March 22: 380
    March 23: 501
    March 24: 636
    March 25: 707
    March 26: 803
    March 27: 1,075
    March 28: 1,418
    March 29: 1,546
    March 30: 2,084
    March 31: 2,311
    April 1 : 2,633

    It now doubles in 3 days!

    And it is expected to rise in the following days.

    Let's project this growth rate:


    April 4: 5,200
    April 7: 10,400
    April 10: 20,800
    April 13: 41,600
    April 16: 83,200

    So if the trend is not broken by social distancing, we will overtake China by April 16!

    Yes, service, that’s what I meant.


    It’s good to know that you’re serving and donating, whether or not you believe in your own press.


    There’s a thread opened by a forum member who posted what he did proactively to be of help.


    It’d be better if you post there so that we’d know what else did you do particularly by way of donation or service.

    More power to you.

    about 2 weeks ago i think i mentioned here that the mother of an acquaintance of mine died because of the covid19 - tests that came out after her death have proved otherwise though. apparently, the aged lady died due to a severe case of pneumonia.

    i'm not sure if her death has now been stricken off the official list of those who succumbed to the plague but i guess it's probably reasonable to deduce that the statistics we see are probably off a wee bit. it appears that amidst all the hectic uncertainty, listing the number of people who expired w/ symptoms similar to those who actually died due to the pestilence, have been somewhat inadvertently lumped together to a degree.

    Did she have pneumonia before being hospitalized? So the test results were negative pala?

    From what my doctor friends arw saying, some of those that are showing mild and even moderate symptoms are not tested. So if the numbers are not accurate, it's still definitely lower than the actual count by a mile.
